Silgan Closures

Silgan closures are pleased to announce the launch of their next generation 5 gallon closure at the September watercoolers Europe association conference and trade fair.

Understanding the needs of the market Silgan have focused their attention on quality of materials and seal whilst maintaining the physical geometry of the closure.

The closure said Gerry Mavin Director of product development is a plug and play system, this avoids costly conversions to the lines or compromise of tamper evidence and security of fit. Whilst many others have focused on shorter caps Silgan have focused real investment on faster cycling in more environmentally electric machines creating a greener closure without the compromise.

The new closure also includes the launch of the next generation “flow-seal” which in extensive laboratory tests provides far greater resistance to mould and algae growth than conventional flow seal systems.

The new closure represents a further €1.5 M investment by Silgan in the European HOD market.
